Adapting the 2D PlaySpace

One of the first hurdles to overcome when I was converting the 2D tutorial over to 3D, was how in the hell was I going to convert the code. Well my solution may not be the most efficient way, but it seemed to work. By placing individual build points which react to the Players click, I now able to build in specific locations, ensuring that I align the defenders with the attackers as before.

I now have 2 complete characters in the game. The Archer, a low hp, high dps warrior, as well as a drummer, which will generate spirit for you to spend on additional orc warriors.

If you have been following my development so far, I'm sure you can notice I have completely retextured the scene, as well as adding some "DooDads" (nostalgia from the blizzard editor days). Be sure to subscribe and not miss when I release an Alpha version of this Orc Defense game.

If anyone is interested in the code I used for this please drop me an email at BedShadows@gmail.com.

The Power of A Goal

In my many months of messing around with Unity, I have started numerous projects, few of them to completion. I never seemed to understand why? I tried many approaches to the development of a game, some I "just winged it", others I planned everything down to how many hairs a character would have, but they all turned out the same, they all failed. Why? Lack of goals. The only games I have officially released have all been game Jams, and they all had a deadline to meet. A quantifiable goal to work towards. This is key. For without a goal, we are a homing missile that has no target. As a creative person, freedom is something that we require in order to be at our best, but without bite sized goals, it is easy to get overwhelmed by larger scale projects. How do we combat it? By using a tool that can enhance our productivity ten fold. A tool that can provide clarity through the mish mash of ideas being generated within our heads. A tool that can be used by everyone. A goal. ...

Convict Torpedo

I've been at it again, this time Dive Jam! Having never even touched water before, it seemed like a great way to expand my knowledge as a game dev. The theme that we were all given was One Breath, so I invented a dystopian world that has been flooded by mans own hand. Crime grew in their confined environment, thus a compromise had to be made. A solution that would both entertain the general public, as well as deal with the over flowing prisons... Enter Convict Torpedo, the convict execution game. Behind The Scenes Underwater Effect For me the first problem to tackle was how to make things look and feel underwater. A lot of it is the sounds, but also, the use of Fog. Luckily for me Unity has the tool perfect for the job. It was funny how the biggest thing I was worried about, turned out to be the quickest and easiest problem to solve! As seen below, the fog made a massive difference to the game! Before Fog After Fog Environment Blender has ...
